I'm not planning to play more now. I'm going continue to play on bigger games like usual. I'm not poor and 20 bucks a month I spend playing it doesn't really hurt me. the 4k I won will easily pay for the next life time of lottery tickets that I plan to play. Like when I have a ticket and I see the pot drop back to the 3 million down from 30 million and you hear the winning ticket was from the city you baught it in you can dream. that's really what I'm paying for.

I used a program called lotto pro 2000 that did 3 hot numbers one prior and 2 cold numbers with a range from 127-167 and some other "system" stuff like not generating past winning numbers ect.. which I'm sure increases odd's by maybe 2%

wtf are you guys talking about hot and cold numbers? The chance of any number being picked is independant or previous appearances...

the chance of rolling a dice 3 times and getting 3 6's in a row is the same as the chance of rolling it and getting 5, 4, then 2....

kind of maybe the balls weight is uneven who knows but some balls come up 30% more than others that's a large enough percent to make me change my number. Don't get me wrong the lottery is more random and luck than it is science. But I'm sure science can get you half the numbers luck has to get you the other half.

Buy fake balls! Replace them while no1's looking and let them fall on the same number.

Do these lottery systems have any explanation as to why certain numbers show up more than others?

A man I work with was off by one digit for the whole thing, according to his facebook.

Post quota for this half year is done.

I think it is all math related - like those problems where you have a jar with black and white balls in it and tyhey ask you what is the chance to get 4 white balls if you get a ball from the jar seven times.

Except there are only 1 of each number in the lottery, aren't there? You're talking about a probability equation, but the probability of each number in the lottery is the same... unless there's something different about it I'm not realizing.

Well, i guess they can put stuff like how many times a certain number was drawn in last years, etc but it will still not give you a chance of winning bigger then 5%. You just make 50-100 different combination of numbers.
